Heckington Windmill was originally built in 1830. In 1890, the mill was repaired using eight sails, and now claims to be the world's only working 8-sail windmill! The site has a Visitor Centre, Tea Room, Brewery, gardens, onsite bakehouse and museum.

Cycle racks are available to park up and secure your bike.

Nice cycle friendly cafe and micro brewery. Plenty of indoor and outdoor seating plus cycle racks in view of the outdoor area.

Heckington Windmill is the only eight-sailed tower windmill still standing in the United Kingdom with its sails intact.
